Cut the breasts off of the goose breast plate.

Soak the goose meat in salt water to get the blood out and cut off all the fat.

Boil the goose meat in water for 20 minutes to break it down and remove the gamey flavor.

Rinse the boiled goose meat in cold water to clean it off.

Transfer the rinsed goose meat into a crock pot.

Add a mixture of Coca-Cola and apple juice to the crock pot, ensuring the meat is submerged.

Cook on low for 7 hours, then switch to high for 1 hour.

After 8 hours, remove the goose meat from the crock pot with a fork and place it on a cutting board.

Use two forks to shred the meat apart, similar to pulled pork.

Return the shredded meat to the crock pot, leaving a little juice at the bottom for flavor.

Add chopped chives and green onions to the meat.

Sprinkle Mediterranean sea salt and steak seasoning over the meat.

Add barbecue sauce to the meat, using about two bottles to moisten and flavor it to taste.

Stir the meat with the sauce and seasonings until well combined.
